On Thursday the White House announced a new military aid package for Ukraine, which is to include anti-air defense systems, something which President Zelensky has continued pressuring his Western backers for. 

National security adviser Jake Sullivan underscored the new proposed package includes "important air defense contributions" - namely the Hawk air defense systems as well as US Avenger which utilizes Stinger missiles. 

This sets up a post midterm test case after Republicans gained a narrow majority in the House. President Biden had addressed this head-on during his post-election press conference Wednesday after some like Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California threatened to pull the plug.
